I don’t know why, but the support I get from people who can’t understand but still want to help means the most to me.
Luckily, I’ve had a load of messages from a million people on just about every platform I knew anybody on filled with support and encouragement. Everybody’s making really sure I don’t feel unloved.
Best of luck. I can only imagine how difficult this has all been. I think keeping the new potential SO a bit at length while you sort through things is the right call but I’m also a random internet person with only the info you presented, so “take with a grain of salt” for sure lol.
If they start love bombing or similar just be direct and clear with them. You like them, you see something there, but it needs to come with time and dumping all these feelings on you as you go through this separation is not productive. Just my 2 cents.
